Solution :-
As mentioned earlier, Microsoft is not a way to resolve this matter satisfactorily large files PST. The best solution is to repair our decisions Outlook. Large PST files can be resumed without data loss. There are two options:
1.If your version of Microsoft Outlook 2003 or higher installed on your computer, you oversized PST files can be converted into the new Outlook 2003 format of Unicode, as well as the limitation of 2 GB is not enough. This method.
2.Si you do not have Outlook 2003 or later, you can divide the PST too many small files. Each file contains data in the source file, PST, but it is less than 2 GB, and independently of the others, so that you can gain access to Outlook 2002 or below, without any problems. This method requires a little uncomfortable for you to manage multiple PST files to separate operations.

Today I saw a tool on a blog-recovering outlook contacts.I tried this tool and it solved my old problems with mails in seconds and without payment.Moreover I saw how program restore all emails, contacts, messages, tasks and calendars are stored on server.
I am a Microsoft Outlook user. Some times I face problem with my Outlook, I am unable to open it or it gives me an error message. I lost all my outlook contacts. I am aware that there are many Repair Outlook PST File tools available in the market. But even repairing our pst file by the software I lost some emails and contacts etc. I remember, in past I had some problem in my Outlook, I purchased one PST repair software, however it just recovered some emails. I lost many emails folder from my outlook, then I purchased one more software but still I lost many important contacts.
I used to find different programs all the previous week. Accidentally I noticed an unusual software - outlook recover ost data,which I downloaded and used. I was discouraged,because of the software showed me extraordinary abilities. It restored my damaged emails for seconds and without payment as I bore in mind. Besides couple days ago my sister asked me to help her out. I recommended her this application. And in a day she thanked me a box of chocolate)). I have been eating it for some days))).
